About Vampire Survivors: Operation Guns
Assemble a squad of classic Characters and arm yourself with an explosive arsenal of arcade weaponry in Vampire Survivors: Operation Guns. Blast through thousands of fearsome foes and bonkers bosses from throughout the lauded lineage of Contra games. Persist determinedly through prodigious stages inspired by the iconic KONAMI series, but be prepared for a bullet-hell of a fight, as the future of the Earth itself rests on your large, muscular shoulders.
Operation Guns embraces the visceral simplicity of classic Contra, with build-focused Characters that encourage min-maxing and stat manipulation, a tonne of weapons (we’re talking 20, including evolutions!), and a difficulty curve that combines quintessentially arcade-hard gameplay with the original Vampire Survivors formula.
